I also hate any Dingwall bass that I cannot possess.
Don't worry, I hate mine too
Ask Fullie, I'm sure he hates his too

Yeah, sure they aren't even fretted right, even a 50$ bass has the frets on pretty decently........................Don't worry, I hate mine too

You're right, I never even noticed that before!
And gosh darnit, they put the pickups on crooked too!

Thats not too bad, you should see my precise(or whatever) bass, pickups are too small, so the butted them up near each other, don't even cover all the strings on their own,
Relax guys... SpectorDave is just a disallusioned Guitard player.

About me:
I spend most of my life doing something musical. I'm constantly playing bass or guitar, writing songs, practicing, buying new gear or working on my guitar rig.

Oh man, that's rough. I think you should return it. Mine has that problem too, glad I'm not the only one.
I bet they are some kind of cheap, electric mandolin pickups or something. B*******!
Oh man, I think you're right. That's such crap! And mine only has 4 strings, what a rip off.
I've already started my angry letter, you tell 'em brother!
(I'm sorry for hijacking this thread, it was a crap thread anyway)
Damn' straight I will!
And I don't think th thread was that bad, everyone's having fun!

i used to hate fenders cause of the pickguard. stupid me..........stupid stupid me........now i hate basses that are far too expensive because of the name on the instrument.
Take it to the man! We'll show him skimping out on OUR pickups.
No, we're having fun, the OP is pissed that his thread has failed, and everyone else is just shaking their heads.
I'm yet to be amazed by a Stingray. I don't hate them I just haven't found them to give me the sound or feel I'm after.
The other one I'm not a big fan of is the Warwick Thumb. Though to be honest I've only played a 6 string version a couple times, so I'm not sure whether its the thumb or the 6 strings. (I've never really found a 6 I'm that I love, though we don't get a lot of them out here).

Only 4 strings and a thin neck...not my favorite. I want at least 5, and fretless if I can get it. I also hate tabs, because it's not as natural as just reading the damn notes.
I've never played a P I really liked the sound of...they're out there somewhere but I haven't played any. Short-scales are really hard to like too IMO.

Ken Smith basses. If I had a full endorsement, I still wouldn't play one. The look lame to me. They sound great, and play great too. I just think they look ugly.
I would track with one, but never live. Just aren't my thing.
